Brush is Perfect - If Used ProperlyI adore this brush, I love winging out my crease/upper lid shadows and this does it perfectly. But when I first used this brush, I was having a hard time getting a seamless blend while using it. I realized the problem was that I was holding the brush too close to the bristles, like a pencil. Sigma doesn't make the brush so long for it to be held at the ferrule. If you're experiencing this problem as well, try holding the brush from the bottom of the handle.

PERFECT!The bristles are so soft, and stay that way! Product is picked up and transferred perfectly. The tapered shape helps me get colour in those small places and the fluffiness of the bristles makes for ease of blending. All-in-all, this brush is just amazing and does everything I bought it to do! I was not disappointed and would rate Sigma higher than the higher-end brushes that I own. One word - PERFECT!

Great for blending eye shadow!!Like all sigma brushes, this brush is super soft. I love using this to apply shadow to my crease or to just blend eye shadows in general. I have gotten so many compliments at how amazing my eye shadows just blend so well into each other and this brush has had a lot to do with that : )

HI. which brush is best for a sweep of powder eyeshadow on the lid ?

This brush is good all over shadow. For maximum pigment, I recommend the E55, it works perfectly for all over base eye shadow application.

Hi, I'm looking to buy some eye brushes, I already have the E35, everybody is talking about the E25, I will get that one as well. To apply color on the outer corner, which brush would you recommend, the E30, E45, E47?

Asked by: Tandis

The E47 is the most ideal for applying pigment to the outer corner due to its fluffiness and tapered shape! You can do basic shading and also create a smoky effect.

Would you recommend this brush for applying colors to the outer V of the eye? Or would you recommend a different brush?

Asked by: Colette

This brush is great for gently applying product and blending. You may prefer the E30, E34 or E21 to apply shadow in your outer V and blend with the E45.

I am looking for brushes to apply color and blend in the crease. I am looking at the e45, the e40, and the e35. Is it necessary to have all or which two would you prefer? Which 2 would u combine or can the e35 do both?

Asked by: Ava333

The E45 - Small Tapered Blending Brush is great for applying powder shadows in the crease. It has a small, tapered brush head with a pointed tip, ideal for the crease. The E40 - Tapered Blending Brush applies with a gentle application of color to soften harsh lines or to apply a transition color to the crease. The E35 - Tapered Blending Brush works great for blending colors together on the lid and for softening looks. You can use any of these brushes in the crease.

Asked by: Bmspa16

Depending on the look you are wanting to accomplish, the E44 brush is very firm and will apply an intense crease color. The E45 brush is tapered and will add depth and dimension to the eye.
